Antony Green is giving the result to Labor, by a small margin, Albo can stare down Bill for a bit.

Liberal senator Jim Molan and former major general in the Australian army speaks to the media in Canberra about the new French built submarine program. He supports the program but says we need them now, and that Australia should consider nuclear power and nuclear power submarines.

Nuclear is NUCLEAR ---        We need to expand as was said .. TO Energy power

Allowing for the 4% average swing against the challenger in Bi Elections .    This has produced a 3% swing in favour of the LNP. =   7% Hammering , whichever way it goes.

It's called winning when you lose, apparently.

I sincerely hope Labor take a good hard look at what happened yesterday. This was a by election for a seat they held . Traditionally voters use this sort of by election to punish the government by letting them know loud and clear if they’re going wrong . Given this electorate has been at the front line of all the disasters this year, drought , Bush fires and Covid you’d think they’d have a lot to complain about! Albanese hand picked the Labor candidate and personally campaigned hard in the electorate. The result was the Labor primary vote was down, the Greens vote was down a lot, Liberal vote was up and Labor will probably hang on to the seat with the preferences of the Shooters and Fishers party. Labor can celebrate a rare win if they want but honestly , if they don’t start listening to the electorate and get in touch with the Australian people Scomo is going to die of old age in the Lodge!

Isn't scoMo the highest rating leader in the Western world because of his pandemic response? Isn't he about 40 points in front of Albo who everyone is writing off? A very popular local member retires and the Liberal juggernaut cant even get over their petty infighting to turn around 2%.

Hardly a typical situation at present, i don't think comparisons with past happenings are necessarily valid.

2 years is a looooong time these days, we could be in a whole new world, depending what happens OS with COVID.

Or Barrilaro standing as an Independent after yesterday's carrying on Baguette.

Am just a trifle worried that Doc is no longer of entirely sound mind, particularly after the above irrelevant and non-factual nonsense.

   I smell a RAT DOC.     These fundraisers are questionable , every time .

Almost every time the red flag flies.
